The trucks are available with several chassis models including Ford, Freightliner, Peterbilt and GMC. Decks range from the 17.5-foot aluminum to a 30-foot steel model. The Century Right Approach model has a 5-foot folding deck, which allows it to easily load and unload vehicles with ground effects. In 2008, Champion introduced a low deck height and low center of gravity rollback truck.

Jerr-Dan, owned by the Oshkosh Corporation, manufactures commercial trucks in McConnellsburg, Pennsylvania. The company makes standard-, medium- and heavy-duty carriers including multi-car carriers. Jerr-Dan’s standard-duty carrier offers the option of a Ford F550 or Dodge 5500 chassis, which require no modifications. Medium-duty, 7.5-ton carriers are available with an all-aluminum, all-steel or a steel/Keruing tropical hardwood deck. Industrial, heavy-duty carriers come in 10-ton or 15-ton payload capacity.

In addition to their North American distribution, Miller Industries and Jerr-Dan rollback trucks are available in over 20 other countries, including Russia, Australia, Saudi Arabia, France and Chile.
